Since the car doesn't seem to be a priority...............we're shopping for new drapes for the master bedroom and was wondering if you could help a brother out with a little current advice? :thumbsup:

It's like watching paint dry... I had a candid conversation with the head crew chief last week, Mr. Rich Bermia. He gave me the inside scoop. It's going to be a bad biotch. If.....it ever gets done. ha

Drapes are over rated. Just watch out for high power lenses in your neighbors' windows. :D

Hey give me a call... I'd like to know what the inside scoop is. :lol:

So you, BadMatt, Ron and I are all on the same project plan.:willy:

As long as Todd doesn't grab an off the shelf 2nd gen before we're done, I'm ok with that.:D

:cheers:

Vegas69 12-29-2012 04:42 PM

My plan is to let you guys spend 5 years and to much money, then come out and put it on you with a budget beater. :lol:

And my plan is to wait until Payback's current owner tires of her in five years, scoop her up for pennies on the dollar, buy some triple adjustable JRI's, a few other go fast bits and some other race car parts that Dead Pool's new owner cast aside because they weren't "streetable enough.". :lol: I should have enough cash left over to get you guys lessons at Bondurant so you can be as fast as Greg and I. Well, almost as fast, I'm not paying for a couple rounds of instruction.

Not a bad deal for a rolling chassis with no motor. :P

Only thing(s) I'm smoking now are some old PS2s and Fords. Picked the Camaro up from the engine builder a couple weeks ago, and it is now making 585/565 on a safe baseline tune, on a loaded chassis dyno. We plan on tuning out a few bugs and looking for power once it's got a few miles on it. It already has more torque than Rob's motor so I'm not too concerned about things right now.

Ordinarily I would feel bad about derailing DG's thread, but we are talking about cars and that is pretty special around these parts.

How much power is that SB2 going to make again?

Todd, I'm not really a video person, but Chad at Bangshift is, and was interested in doing a write up of the "real" intake manifold when it eventually goes on. When that happens is largely dependent on Daves dyno numbers, or Rob's chassis dyno numbers.

No video? Hmm sounds suspicios.

They are all apples to oranges unless run on the same Dyno by the same operator. :P

Best to just sort this out at the track:yes:

Suspiscious because you're not used to engines making That much power? Wait! I know you're actually suspiscious because you're not used to small block CHEVYS making that much power.

Since final compression ratio and cam specs are possibly up in the air, I'll go with this.

Minimum 725 (I'll be disappointed with anything less)

Target 750+ (This should be doable given just the dry sump upgrade and other things staying the same)

775-800 (If things get a little wild with compression and cam)

But don't go holding me to this. :unibrow:
